Case No. O-AR-873
ORDER DISMISSING EXCEPTIONS
This case is before the Authority on exceptions to the award of
Arbitrator Robert G. Williams filed by the Union pursuant to section
7122(a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute and
section 2425.1 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations. By Authority
letter dated December 7, 1984,the Union was informed that preliminary
examination of the exception disclosed an apparent deficiency in meeting
the requirements of the Authority's rules of procedure. Specifically,
as was noted in the Authority's letter, the Union's exception failed to
comply with section 2425.1(d) of the Regulations.
The Union was also advised in the Authority's letter that further
processing of the exception was contingent upon compliance with the
designated provision of the Authority's Regulations. In this regard,
the Union was informed of the specific action that had to be taken to
comply and complete the appeal, and was afforded time in which to take
that action. Finally, the Union was advised that failure to comply with
the cited requirement within the time limit provided could result in
dismissal of the exception.
The Union has made no submission within the time limit provided.
Accordingly, the exception is hereby dismissed for failure to comply
with the Authority's Regulations. For the Authority. Issued,
Washington, D.C. January 18, 1985
